Chapter 4746 The old hen announces the good news
"Sister-in-law is joking." Tuoba Xian raised her hand and stroked her cheek a little embarrassedly.
After Wang Cuilian's reminder, Yang Ruoqing really discovered it.
My mother-in-law's complexion is rosier than before, and the fine lines at the corners of her eyes seem to have faded a bit. She is obviously already forty-eight, but she looks like she is thirty-eight or nineteen.
Well, I will wait until spring next year to buy royal jelly and come back. Then I will buy more and give some to my mother and aunt.
Yang Ruoqing and Xiaoduo came to the yard of her parents' house next door together. Mrs. Sun had just shaken off her apron and was preparing to cook lunch.
Xiaoduo said: "Feng'er probably couldn't eat anything at noon. He ate two large fruit cakes at my sister's house in one sitting!"
Mrs. Sun was startled for a moment, then smiled: "What kind of fruit cake can make him have such an appetite?"
Yang Ruoqing explained the cause and effect of the matter.
Mrs. Sun's smile became even wider: "This is the first time to eat that new kind of fruit. It's a pity that we don't sell it in the tile market here, otherwise I would go and buy some."
Yang Ruoqing nodded, "It's okay, there will definitely be a chance in the future."
Before the rice on Sun's side was even in the pot, the eldest Sun came rushing over.
"Xiaojie has given birth to a daughter!" she shouted as soon as she entered the door.
"When did you give birth? I came back from the Mid-Autumn Festival two days ago and said it was still more than half a month away. Why did you give birth so soon?" Ms. Sun asked in surprise, with a look of surprise on her face.
Da Sun said: "Just now, Zhang Ban came over with an old hen to announce the good news. He said that he gave birth during breakfast. I asked him when Xiao Jie started to have labor pains. How are the mother and daughter doing now?
He stammered and said that mother and daughter were safe, and couldn't say anything else. But he made me so anxious that I couldn't speak fluently, so why did he teach in a school in the town? "
"Oh, Zhang Ban is a man and a scholar. How could he know this? Sister, please don't criticize your son-in-law. As long as the mother and daughter are safe, we will feel relieved." Mrs. Sun said with a smile.
"Where are the Zhang Ban people?" asked Sun again.
Da Sun said: "I collected the old hen and cooked him a bowl of noodles. He hurried back without even eating two bites. As soon as he left, I came to find you on the back!"
"This woman has walked through the gates of hell to give birth to a baby. That girl Xiaojie has been afraid of pain since she was a child. Judging from the time when the baby was born, she must have been struggling all night last night, and I wasn't around either. It makes me sad just thinking about it..."
Da Sun's nose turned red and tears fell down.
Sun Shimi didn't care about shopping anymore, she took the eldest Sun Shi and sat down, comforting her while discussing the matter of visiting Xiao Jie...
In the kitchen, Xiaoduo and Yang Ruoqing naturally took over the baton, washing rice and cooking. The two sisters cooperated in a tacit understanding. While the pots and pans were banging, they could still find time to chat. Naturally, the content of the chat was also
About Xiaojie giving birth to a baby.
"Sister, why did Zhang Ban bring an old hen to announce the good news?" Xiaoduo asked in confusion.
Yang Ruoqing pursed her lips and smiled: "It's a custom in our area. When a boy is born, he carries a rooster, and when a girl is born, she carries a hen. You will understand when you take a look at the chicken."
Xiaoduo nodded, "Sister, do you think the Zhang family will be unhappy if Xiaojie gives birth to a girl? Zhang Ban is the only child in the Zhang family!"
Yang Ruoqing paused for a moment and said, "This kind of thing depends on the person. Xiaojie is the first to give birth to a girl, and she will have many more children in the future. She is not in a hurry to have a son."
"However, from a common sense point of view, even if Xiaojie and Zhang Ban are fine, the Zhang family's parents must have a little regret in their hearts, but the parents-in-law, who are smart and sensible, will not show such small unhappiness. If they encounter
If you have an evil mother-in-law like me who has no scruples, just wait for the storm that will greet her during her confinement. My fourth aunt is the best example!"
Thinking about how Mrs. Liu gave birth to three daughters at once, Mrs. Tan almost lifted the roof of the West House.
It's just that Mr. Liu is very arrogant and should still eat and drink. If it were another wife, she might suffer from postpartum depression.
Xiaoduo was stunned when he heard this.
Yang Ruoqing raised her head and glanced at Xiaoduo, and said: "Boys and girls are all the flesh that fell from their own bodies. No matter what others think of them, first of all, we cannot be affected by other people's attitudes. Look at our parents, we are the first to have children."
You are still a stupid girl after marrying me, why don’t you still hold me in your hands and feel pain despite the pressure from all sides?”
Xiaoduo came back to his senses and nodded vigorously, "Yes, my baby hurts himself. If he doesn't even care about me, then the baby will be really pitiful!"
Hearing about Xiaojie giving birth to a baby, looking at Xiaoduo in front of her, and thinking about Xiaohua far away in the capital, Yang Ruoqing was filled with emotions.
Time flies so fast. In front of her eyes, it seems that the three of them are still as they were when they were children. The seven or eight-year-old girls gather together to learn needlework every day, chirping like a group of little sparrows.
In the blink of an eye, they all now have children, and the youngest Xiaoduo will get married in a few months. When did they grow up? Huh?
Half of the meal was burned, and Mrs. Sun and Ms. Sun entered the kitchen hand in hand.
Seeing the two sisters cooking, Mrs. Sun was not surprised at all. This is the benefit of having a daughter. She is attentive and does not need to be told, they can all figure it out, which saves worry for the mother.
"Qing'er, Duo'er, I discussed with your eldest aunt before and we plan to go to Zhang's house to see Xiaojie in three days," said Sun.
Xiaoduo was naturally applauded for this decision.
But Yang Ruoqing, as someone who has been here before, is also familiar with the customs and habits of this area. She was a little surprised to hear that the Sun family and the eldest Sun family, who always followed the customs the most, made such a decision.
Under normal circumstances, we schedule a visit on the ninth day, mainly considering two points.
That is, the mother has just given birth to a baby, her body is weak, and the trauma under her body has not yet had time to recover.
At this time, if guests come to visit the mother, it will be a burden for the mother.
On the other hand, there are newborns.
A newborn has just arrived in this world and has escaped the protection of her mother's body. She has to rely on her own senses to adapt to this new world.
Newborns are very fragile and sensitive. It is not appropriate to hold them out for viewing by relatives and friends at this time.
"Auntie, mother, don't we all in this area pay a visit to my mother's family after taking nine baths? By the way, I'm giving you a gift for giving birth to a baby. Why did you two come six days in advance?" she asked.
Mrs. Sun then glanced at Mrs. Sun, who said, "I really can't wait any longer. It will take nine days to go. I'm so impatient!"
Yang Ruoqing is both a mother and a daughter, and she deeply understands Sun's mood at this moment.
Xiaojie is her daughter. Xiaojie gave birth to a baby for the first time and she didn't understand many things.
Although Xiaojie's mother-in-law will take care of Xiaojie, she is her mother-in-law after all. No matter what, she can't be as careful as her own mother-in-law. Moreover, there are some things that are inconvenient for her mother-in-law to do, but it's okay for her own mother-in-law to do them.
Taken into consideration.
